That's just a light sheetmetal flange. It probably got dinged by some road debris. Shouldn't cause any problems as is but you can just pry it back with a screwdriver if it bothers you.

Only a slight concern is the extra wear on the rubber as you can see in the red circle. Bend it back and drive away smiling

Best regards,

Michael
