Groff is a Grammy winner for Hamilton as he was a principal soloist. All the other principal soloists have Grammys as well for Hamilton.
Groff DOES NOT have a Grammy for Spring Awakening. The only winners were Duncan Sheik (composer and producer), Steven Sater (lyricist), and Michael Tudor (engineer). There were no principal soloists listed for Spring Awakening.

For anyone who hasn't seen how Daveed has been putting his grammy to use: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=00uSkCeXnls
That was uploaded at the end of May (culled from his Snapchat) but he has periodically put more up; the latest was yesterday.
I similarly don't doubt that Lin will (P)EGOT for Moana. He has a golden touch and is well-liked, a winning combination for awards ceremonies.

It does indeed seem a bit fair that artists such as Groff - who sung for a couple of minutes in total - can walk away with a Grammy today where as Bernadette Peters did not win a Grammy for her performances in SUNDAY IN THE PARK, INTO THE WOODS, ANNIE GET YOUR GUN and GYPSY.
"You can't overrate Bernadette Peters. She is such a genius. There's a moment in "Too Many Mornings" and Bernadette doing 'I wore green the last time' - It's a voice that is just already given up - it is so sorrowful. Tragic. You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022)
"Bernadette's whole, stunning performance [as Rose in Gypsy] galvanized the actors capable of letting loose with her. Bernadette's Rose did take its rightful place, but too late, and unseen by too many who should have seen it" Arthur Laurents (2009)
"Sondheim's own favorite star performances? [Bernadette] Peters in ''Sunday in the Park,'' Lansbury in ''Sweeney Todd'' and ''obviously, Ethel was thrilling in 'Gypsy.'' Nytimes, 2000

^I'm sure Bernadette is losing a lot of sleep over this.
