Stadium names and listed seating capacities are for the 2026 NFL season, mainly from Wikipedia’s current NFL stadiums list (cited there to club media guides and reporting). Super Bowl counts are after Super Bowl LX (8 February 2026). Naming rights, renovations and new builds change: treat figures as a snapshot, not a deed.
