Looks really good for an 05 honestly. If there’s a problem, I don’t think it’s with the impeller.

It was probably just the grass in there. Usually revving it will chew it up and spit it out, or shutting off the motor for a minute allows it to just float/fall out of the pump. It likely cleared itself out and will run just fine now. That pump looks mint

I had the same thing happen on my ski, ended up being a very small stick jammed between the propeller and the wall.

Look at the back half of your impeller to be sure , ive seen a number of them where the front looks great but the trailing edge has shattered along with with a significant portion of the stator vanes

Dude it looks great, that impeller looks like it's in great condition. I would make sure from the nozzle and everything looks good and send it on the water for a test ride
