Help is this the wheel hub? video

Just Recently Purchased another f150 and i beleive what i see is going to mean i have to replace the hub today i lifted the truck up and am able to rock the wheel and also the hub moves. i am linking a video just to get some second opinions or am i looking at a diffrent problem. also i hear the clanking from it some times and the abs i felt kick on once when it was not needed also when i lift the wheel off the ground and spin i hear it grinding. Can anyone confirm for me that this is probably what i am going to have to do?

Yessir, hub/wheel bearing. That's pretty bad. Check everything else while your in there. Upper and lower ball joints, tie rod ends, bushings etc.. But thats a hub for sure.

Since you have it that far apart, replace the ABS sensor, you should get a new one with the hub.
