You can navigate to the 2nd line with

  2G

and just type

  dd

You can use the Ex mode command

  :2d

to delete the second line.

However, this is such a trivial/basic task that I wonder if you have
some other more complex task in your head, such as iterating over a
large number of files and deleting the 2nd line on each of them.
This could be done with

  :set hidden
  :argdo 2d

you can then review the changes and issue

  :wall

to save them all, or you can

  :qa!

to abandon those changes.
