What is it at idle? Most are ~10-12% idle and ~75-77% WOT.

If the idle is in range, it points to the cable not correctly adjusted. First check the pedal for full travel, clean the wad of carpet, gummy bears, etc, out from under it. Then have a helper hold it to the floor, under the hood, check that the throttle is fully open, just. If it not, loosen the nuts and adjust until it just touches the WOT stop, when the pedal is fully depressed. Over adjusting is the leading cause of cable failure, so just touching the stop.
If the cable is correctly adjusted and idle % is correct, it's possible that the TPS is dying, but that is way less common than an incorrectly adjusted cable.
