It might not be getting enough water, but im not sure why it’s only on that one leaf. Im not an expert but if it were me i would probably cut it off because i don’t think it will heal. I hope your plant stays healthy :)

i agree with plantingchorra - cut it off and if you notice more leaves like this then you should change something like water or lighting
