What component smd is?

Hi, a few days ago I tried to inspect my Fire TV Stick, and while opening it with a screwdriver I accidentally damaged an SMD component. Since then, the device is no longer detecting any Wi-Fi signal.

I’m attaching a macro photo showing the damaged trace/component area, along with a general image I found online of a similar board for reference. In that area there seems to be a very small component, but I’m not sure whether it’s a capacitor, resistor, or something else—those tiny SMD parts are really confusing to identify.

Could anyone help me determine what type of replacement component I need?
