I may be wrong, but they kinda look sun scorched? Are they getting direct sun for long periods?

They get sunlight around 8 hours a day

Strawberries love sun. Where do you live? It almost looked like they've been exposed to cold, and they didn't like it much.

Fort worth Texas. It’s been freezing one day and then in the 70-80s for around a week now

They do love sun. But when I've gotten mine from the greenhouse, they grow them under a net shade. And this is what they look like after putting them on my porch in full sun. So I started gradually upping sun time. I actually bought my own custom net shade for this year 😎 ⛱️

I agree a shady environment to a sunny environment can be a shock so this could be the reason but if it was exposed to freezing one day that's all it would take to damage the foliage. Izzy you will have to decide which scenario fits best to your problem.
