It's take two in Week 2 for Bryce Young and the Panthers. 

The No. 1 pick's NFL debut didn't go as planned against the Jets in the preseason opener, as the rookie out of Alabama was hit hard in limited action. Carolina's offensive line held a meeting following the shutout loss at home, declaring that they need to be better. 

While most opponents won't have the same defensive depth as the Jets, it won't get easier if the Panthers' front line continues to fold like a chair. Now they take their show on the road, heading north to East Rutherford, N.J., for a date with the Giants under the lights on Friday night.

Big Blue didn't have a ton of success in their opener either, falling to the Lions in Detroit. However, it would be unfair to judge both sides too harshly, considering the nature of preseason football. 

While the scoreboard showed both teams losing, the fact is that both walked away winners by suffering no major injuries. They'll have to hope that remains the case through two weeks of preseason, with the Week 1 kickoff now just three weeks away. 

Here's everything you need to know about the Panthers-Giants Week 2 preseason matchup, including channels, live streaming options and kickoff time.
