It’s probably overwatered

Agree. That pot also looks too big for the size of your plant. Snake Plants like to be tight in their pots

try cutting above the mushy part and then cutting in triangles to propagate set in water. It will grow new roots and then put it in a smaller pot. Make sure not to overwater and wait till the soil is completely dry.🩷

squishy leaves are a sign of overwatering and possible root rot. the pot looks too big for your plant and the soil appears to be too dense as well, which is contributing to the overwatering. i think repotting your snake plant is the best choice for its health right now, as it will likely continue to decline especially if the soil is still moist. if you discover rot, gently remove and shake away most of the dirt, cut an inch or so above any black or mushy roots, and spray with undiluted (3%, topical) hydrogen peroxide before repotting in a succulent mix.
