I feel embarrassed to work for a particular organization that fined a teammate of mine for shaking my hand after a touchdown

Lynch is referring to his teammate Chris Matthews, who was fined$11,025. Matthews was one of many players who took part in Lynch's celebration where he shook teammates' hands, but none of the other players were fined.
According to the Seattle Times, Matthews was fined for an "obscene gesture." The NFL must have thought Matthews also grabbed his crotch.
Lynch didn't stop there with his social media criticism of the league. Before he sent out that tweet he retweeted an account that tagged him in a photo poking fun at the NFL.

DUNCEFACE (@thedunceface) January 22, 2015ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Thursday the league is keeping a close eye on Lynch. The Seahawks back skipped out on speaking to the media again after the NFC Championship and the league is considering increasing his fines, per Schefter.
