Rick Devens is best known as a contestant on the reality TV show "Survivor." He appeared on "Survivor: Edge of Extinction," which was the show's 38th season and aired in 2019.

On the season, Rick was a news anchor from Macon, Georgia, and became one of the most popular and memorable players due to his sense of humor, charisma, and underdog gameplay. He was voted out early in the game but returned from the Edge of Extinction twist, then managed to win multiple immunity challenges and orchestrate several blindsides. Despite becoming a major target, Rick made it all the way to the Final Four before being eliminated just before the final tribal council.
