Per the NFL rules and operations site, players receive a letter from the league informing them of what they did, along with a video of the play, why they are being fined, and how much it will cost them.
"The NFL uses the
fine schedule to outline the league’s and the union’s expectations for players to conduct themselves in a way that honors the sport and respects the game, themselves, their fellow players, the fans and the league. The rules are intended to protect the players from unnecessary risk, promote player safety and emphasize sportsmanship and respect of teammates, opponents, coaches, officials and fans."
Players can appeal the fines if they choose.
