Ps I think it’s from overwatering the soil is pretty wet still

I would cut them with sterile scissors or clippers if they’re stuck on there, but if they’re loose you can lightly pull them to prevent damage on the other leaves!

As mentioned, shears are best usually - however if you grab at the base of the lead where it connects to the main stock/ stem and twist it should coins of quite easily once ready
