It looks to be a common deep shade issue. Even the weeds are stressing out.
Test the soil pH. Underneath large trees the soil often acidifies and adding in some lime will help.
The main solution is to pick the correct species that will work in the location. Skip the bluegrass, ryegrass, tall fescue, hard fescue or sheep fescueetc and look for festuca rebrum and it’s subspecies (creeping red fescue, chewing fescue, etc).
You’ll also want to overseed this fall at a rate of 7-10lbs of seed to/1000 sq feet. Not that piddly little bit that you did there. It’s not enough seed to do shit.
