I’m 13 years old and trying to take responsibility for breaking my Apple watch by fixing it myself.
I have the screen replacement, but this part came out of my watch. I think it is the force touch sensor, but I wanted to double check.
EDIT: My screen replacement is below. It is off-brand.
If possible could I get some help?

If you review Step 8 in this Teardown of the Watch you’ll see the pictured part is not the ForceTouch sensor Apple Watch Series 4 Teardown
As to what it is would be tough as there is not enough information in the image to gain a sense of scale or understanding the parts construction.
Using the teardown can you see what it is.
@ebp049x - OK, was out enjoying the day sorry for not piping up sooner.
The display assembly is made up of a collection of discrete elements the crystal glass, the touch plate, the OLED screen, the backplate which holds the NFC chip.
What I see is a bunch of mangled parts and you still have part of the display assembly attached to the watches body.
You will need to get a new display assembly to fix this. Here’s the guide which also has the parts info Apple Watch Series 4 Screen Replacement

It is part of the screen, which is not disassembled in the teardown.
That's the touch screen. Don't worry about it.
If I do not reapply it or do not purchase a replacement, will anything on the watch be affected?
@ebp049x That is already on the replacement screen. Nothing to worry about. Good luck with the repair.
I posted an update
