Should they make money, which most likely is a result of on-field sucess, it would be rewarding him.
I understand that. I think that it's a bit premature to offer a new headcoach such an option. It looks desperate - like the Stamps are overcorrecting for hiring Higgins.

But, youre right, it could be a motivating factor... but I hope a head coach wouldnt need one.
