It could be any one (or more) of several. Repotting it into a larger container, as @kevwr1962 recommends is a GREAT idea. Any stress to the plant (such as being root-bound) makes it more susceptible to diseases.
The good news is, the tomatoes themselves shouldn’t be affected.
Have you had your first BLT yet? 🙂
No, but I picked one off the plant this morning and handed it to my daughter. She is a big fan of tomatoes. What is a good way to know when to water?

my potted tomatoes need water daily. The leaves begin to droop if they don't get it.

I would also add some nutrients. I'm sure Kelly's has a line of organic fertilizers.

I've been watering daily so when the leaves started to yellow I thought I had over-watered them.
