Unscrew the back, pop the faceplate off, add a new joystick cover, and screw back on.

Edit:just realised it is not even an official Xbox controller wtf even is that

How in the name of god did this happen? Regardless, it seems like only the plastic part of the stick is broken. You can buy replacements, then you just have to unscrew the back and pop it on

Xbox style controllers tend not to make good frisbees, try the PS5 layout, it is more symmetrical and aerodynamic to throw

Are you wanting to fix it so he can continue using it? If that's the case then my advice is you don't. Consequence for actions here.

He has to learn that things are expensive and that he has to be more careful

How tf did he do that, my sister dropped a controller and broke the connection of the toggle stick and the board but we had to take the controller apart just to get the loose piece out

As others have said unscrew the back, place the joystick back on. I'd recommend getting a new one sent out but given the slight break on it you might be able to get away with using the same one. I'm guessing he is either chucked it at a wall or is a dog and it's his favourite chew toy. If you use the old joystick be warned that the internals will be more exposed and dirt more likely to collect inside.

With it not being an official nintendo Pro controller you probably won't need to get a tri screwdriver that you need for most Nintendo products. So won't be too hard to fix. You may need to talk with your brother though about not abusing his tech.
