The photo is too blurry to tell much, but it could be rust. Or it could simply be the fact that the leaf is old and is on its way out. Nepenthes drop the lower leaves as they grow new ones on top.

As Matt said it could be getting old. An when they get old they do kill of the older leafs to make way for new ones.

I'm almost 100% sure it's just becoming old. Is there a healthy pitcher on the leaf? How long has it been since the leaf first started?
