Find a wheel repair shop around you and get an estimate on how much it would be to repair. How bad is the bend? Post a pic up if you can. Most bends are repairable without having to replace the rim.
That's definitely looks like it can be repaired. Look for quotes at wheel/rim places. Shops in my area will probably charge no more than $200 for that. I bent my wheel the first week I got the car parking too close to the curb, the bend took up 1/3 of the wheel but since my wheel is black, it blended in. Shops wanted like $150 to fix it but I can't tell, not leaking any air, and I am planning to get wheels in the future so I didn't get it fixed.
That bend definitely looks repairable. Around CA i'm sure places would repair that for $100-$150. Not sure in Maryland though, i'm sure rim repair isn't as big of a business there as it is here in CA But definitely see if there's any places around you and try and get quotes.
What brand of the rim is that? How hard, How deep was it when you hit that pothole?
VOSSEN WHEELS VVS086. I was driving up north on the turnpike doing about 80 MPH and it was around midnight didn't see the pothole when I was switching lanes.
