What is the capacity of MetLife Stadium?

MetLife Stadium is one of only two NFL stadiums shared by two teams (Jets and Giants). Opened in 2010, it is a neutral-toned facility that transforms its lighting and branding for each team, providing a high-capacity, modern venue just outside New York City.
