The Carolina Panthers chose Smith in the third round (74th Overall) during the 2001 NFL Draft. He spent a majority of his season as a kick and punt returner, leading all rookies in net yardage with a 1,994 yards, and landing in fourth place overall behind Priest Holmes, Marshall Faulk, and Derrick Mason. Smith’s outstanding performance was rewarded with an invite to the Pro Bowl. Together, with Todd Sauerbrun, they were they only players to represent the Panthers in the 2002 Pro Bowl. During the 2002 NFL season, Smith earned a starting position as a wide receiver and continued to carry out his kickoff and punt return duties. Smith played a critical role for the Panther offense during their incredible 2003 season, and further improved his statistics. During NFC Divisional Playoffs, Smith caught a 69 yard pass, and ran it for a touchdown that; the play would later go on to be voted as the single greatest moment in team history by Panther fans. He went on to catch 4 passes for 80 yards and a touchdown and returned a kickoff for 30 yards in the Panthers narrow 32-29 loss to the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XXXVIII. After completing two years at Santa Monica College, Smith transferred to the University of Utah, where he quickly established himself as the premier wideout in the Mountain West Conference.
