No but it literally happened overnight after about 50 maybe degree weather and strong wind

My first guess would be burn/dehydration from going inside to outside.  Did you harden the plant off before moving it out and how long was it outside before this happened?  If the damage appeared shortly after the plant got it's first bright outdoor sun, it's very possible that the sun burned the leaves and the wind cause even more burn/dehydration and broke up the damaged/weakened lead tissue. If this sounds likely, I would recommend moving it to the shade and also trying to get it a bit of wind protection until it strengthens up, then exposing it more gradually/progressively over the course of a week or so to that hot TX sun.
 
You know.what that makes quite a bit of sense it when it happened it was the first good bit of sun we had and it was hot I've been moving it back and forth but it has been cool outside I'm going to bring him back inside and let it get the sun little by little thanks
