Of the two topics here both are hamstrung. Grant has a hamstring strain and hasn't really been tested this season so this is just stupid speculation off a slow race with a kick. For all you know Grant would have just taken the whole thing out hard.
As for Nikki, they also very CLEARLY have a hamstring issue given the tape all over their leg. Saying they shouldn't have left Mike based off their racing at less than 100% at one meet is also stupid.

I wonder if grant is protesting the change of event structure for the LD guys. Breach of contract or something like that…
YES, YES, and YES!!!
You sign a contract for a set amount of money (appearance fee), and a set number of races for which you will have the opportunity to make X amount of dollars, and then out of the blue the contract is changed, and the possible earned money is cut in half. The distance runners (3000m-5000m) got totally screwed!!! Where did the other $50,000 in prize money go? Who gets that?
