“I'm not going to lie, playing in that stadium, I've had that problem before. That glare coming from that end zone in the afternoon is awful.” Absolutely ridiculous. It’s like the glass made it wider,” Kelce said on a recent episode of “New Heights.”
“It feels like the sun is bigger and brighter than it's ever been. I get that, but obviously you're trying not to excuse things like that, but oh well. I mean , I understand where he’s coming from.”
Travis and his brother Jason Kelce looked at photos from the game and were surprised by the glare of the sun.

“The intensity of the sun coming through that window at that time of day is crazy. You'd think they'd put up an awning or something,” Jason said.
“Look at him, why is that— so bright? What—?” Travis said with a laugh.
Lamb said he “1000%” believes the Cowboys should hang the curtains.

However, team owner Jerry Jones did not agree to the star receiver hanging up the curtains.
“So let's tear down this damn stadium and build another one? Are you kidding me? Are you kidding me? You're saying the world knows where the sun is. That was almost a year ago. “I know. Someone asked me, 'What about the sun? Where's the moon?'” Jones said.

Travis couldn't believe Jones' response.
“What's Jerry talking about?” Travis joked, bursting out laughing.
“Listen, where is the sun, I can hear him,” Travis said.
