Club career

Born in Bad Kreuznach, Huth grew up in nearby Guldental and started playing football with local clubs SG Guldental and Hassia Bingen.{{cite web|url=http://mobil.rhein-zeitung.de/startseite_artikel,-Jannik-Huth-Das-Drittligadebuet-bleibt-im-Kopf-_arid,1285962.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151116200334/http://mobil.rhein-zeitung.de/startseite_artikel%2C-Jannik-Huth-Das-Drittligadebuet-bleibt-im-Kopf-_arid%2C1285962.html |archive-date=16 November 2015 |title=Jannik Huth: Das Drittligadebüt bleibt im Kopf |trans-title=Jannik Huth: 3.

Subsequently, he joined the youth ranks of Mainz 05 and eventually made it to their second team squad. He made his 3. Liga debut with Mainz 05 II at 5 October 2014 against Holstein Kiel.{{cite web|url=https://int.soccerway.com/matches/2014/10/05/germany/3-liga/1-fsv-mainz-05-ii/kieler-sv-holstein-von-1900-ev/1730391/|title=Mainz 05 II vs. Holstein Kiel - 5 October 2014 - Soccerway|publisher=soccerway.com|accessdate=11 November 2015}}
In January 2018, Huth joined Eredivisie side Sparta Rotterdam on loan until the end of the season.{{cite news|title=Mainz verleiht Huth zu Sparta Rotterdam|url=https://www.kicker.de/mainz-verleiht-huth-zu-sparta-rotterdam-716267/artikel|access-date=1 February 2018|work=kicker |date=31 January 2018|language=German}}
=SC Paderborn=
In May 2019, Huth joined newly promoted Bundesliga club SC Paderborn on a three-year contract, effective 1 July.{{cite news |title=Perfekt: Huth verlässt Mainz Richtung Paderborn |url=https://www.kicker.de/perfekt_huth-verlaesst-mainz-richtung-paderborn-750095/artikel |access-date=11 March 2025 |work=kicker |date=25 May 2019 |language=de-DE}} He was expected to compete with Leopold Zingerle for the starting goalkeeper position. Huth began the season as Paderborn's first-choice goalkeeper due to Zingerle recovering from a shoulder injury sustained the previous season. However, after Zingerle's return, Huth was relegated to a backup role.{{cite news |title=Paderborn: Huth, Holtmann und das Wiedersehen mit Schmidt |url=https://www.kicker.de/paderborn_huth_holtmann_und_das_wiedersehen_mit_schmidt-762005/artikel |access-date=11 March 2025 |work=kicker |date=6 November 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230529171046/https://www.kicker.de/paderborn_huth_holtmann_und_das_wiedersehen_mit_schmidt-762005/artikel |archive-date=29 May 2023 |language=de-DE}}
