Corn plant issues – not perking up, browning, cuts in leaves

Hello!!

I have two identical corn plants, one is thriving and looking healthy, but the other is browning, has rips in the leaves, and is drooping almost.

Wondering what could cause this/any care tips?

Thanks so much!

There are some concerning markings on your plant.
I would first isolate the plant from other plants.
Check watering first; inconsistent watering and lack of humidity can cause leaf issues.
They can also be sensitive to salts in water so water with distilled water or let the water sit out on the counter for 48 hours before using.
This also could be leaf spot disease; either virus or bacteria.
