I just bought this about 2 weeks ago. Does he need to be put in a bigger pot? Do I unravel the roots? Or just let him be? I also haven’t added new soil, do I need to do that as well?

Yes it needs repotting, the roots circling the bottom is a sign of a need for repotting.

I’d repot into larger pot, smooshing the roots- loosening them but not cutting them or untangling them - just freeing them a bit. Use well draining soil with pearlite. Good luck 🍀
