So earlier when I was testing my game everything went well, then I added some code. In my game I have states like PlayState or MenuState and now everything goes well, but when I try to switch the states in-game, the following error occurs:
Exception in thread "LWJGL Application" java.lang.NullPointerException
at com.badlogic.gdx.graphics.g2d.SpriteBatch.flush(SpriteBatch.java:955)

It says that the problem is in my Player class, so here is the code:

What is the problem here?
Are you sure that skin and coat have a texture applied when being drawn?
Your error message suggests that the problem is here:
batch.begin();
skin.draw(batch);
coat.draw(batch);
batch.end();
The only thing I can think of would be if the state was messed up and they didn't have a texture to draw.
