His first foray into the Town first team was when he appeared on the bench in Town's 2-1 defeat against Barnsley on 31 August 2013. He made his début for the Terriers in the Football League Cup game against Hull City at the KC Stadium on 24 September 2013.

On 31 January 2015, Smith was airlifted to hospital with severe head trauma after colliding with the Huddersfield goalkeeper, Joe Murphy.[2] He was treated for 9 minutes before being given oxygen and stretched the pitch. After the game, an air ambulance landed on the pitch and airlifted him to Leeds General Infirmary.
His first goal for the Terriers came in their 5–2 FA Cup defeat against Reading at the Madejski Stadium on 19 January 2016.
