That is fairly thin information. Could be insects or fungi.How often do you water and for how long? Try 1/2″ to 3/4″ water twice a week.
Best bet is probably to go to Lowes or similar and buy a lawn fungicide and a turf insecticide that hose mounts. Spray your lawn with both. Typical residential home can be treated for under $40.

I was watering every other day but increased to 5 days per week, 7 minutes per station.
