It could be damaged, I would first inspect it looking for any bent components or damaged threads. In that case it would need to be replaced. If that checks out I would recommend trying some spray lube to see if maybe that will free it up.
The Ultra-Fab Products Trailer Jack # UF48-979032 that you referenced would make a good replacement if you determine your jack is damaged.
