chain (tensiorer?) jamming

Video attached.  In the video I'm just cranking it backwards to easily reproduce the issue.  Seems like the tensioner is jamming it somehow.  This started happening on my wife's bike a few days back after she hit a pot hole in the road.  Eventually the chain popped off.

We don't really know much about bikes, so I thought I'd reach out to here to see if this is something obvious before we took it to a shop.

It wasn't letting me attach the video for some reason, so here is a link:  https://streamable.com/a88zvh

Link says ?video not available?
??? I saw it yesterday.

It was as if the chain tensioner spring wasn't strong enough.

How is it in lower gears?
