Wow - the same sequence of events for me - and only came here because when you submit a ticket, they tell you to check Wowhead first - what a lifesaver. Thanks.
I had to click on the ball at the end of the chain he is attached to and it will unlock the shackle.

Description
They roughed me up real good an' I have a splitting headache but I'll survive. I need to get out of this bit o' chain here though. Could ye get the key to it for me? A big ogre called Nub has it, he's over on the far side of the terrace.

Where this quest fits
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Garrison Campaign: The Search for Owynn Graddock
Commander, I have bad news to report. Agent Graddock was out on assignment to keep an eye on the Bloodmaul and he missed his deadline to check back in. Something's not right, <name>. If Owynn was captured they may have locked him away with their slaves.
