Pothos repotted after catching draft and being overwatered. Here it is about two weeks after that.

Hello, I would gently take it out the dirt and lightly rinse and check your roots. If they are still alive just put it in water until it perks up. It might take a week or so but leave in the water until it perks. If the water becomes merky change the water until you are happy.  
Good luck!

I recommend giving it more light, adding liquid fertilizer every 2 weeks, diluted 50%, and a using a smaller pot. Water when the soil dries out. It shouldn’t take 2 weeks to perk up after repotting. It should be good within a week or less.

I also recommend adding rooting hormones powder to the roots during the repot. Add SuperThrive plant vitamins to the fertilizer water. 🍀🪴

Thank you! Does this look about right? I’m not even sure I have roots anymore. May need to rinse off more though at this point I could just wait and see what happens.

The black roots look dead. Were you able to rinse the dirt off, if not and they feel soft/ slimy you will need to cut them off to grow new roots.

I do see some white roots in the back that look good. After you remove the black ones if they are dead then Leave the plant in the water and keep the water clean every couple days if it gets merky.

I would remove from soil and make sure the roots are ok. Then keep it in water with more light to get it happy again. Also it looks like that pot is too big for that guy.
