Patrick "Rick" William Devens[2] is a contestant from Survivor: Edge of Extinction.

Rick found himself in a comfortable position on the original Manu tribe by aligning with returning player David Wright and associating with the majority. Following a Tribe Switch, however, with the alliance's common target now on a separate tribe, he was voted out for being seen as untrustworthy and chose to go to the Edge of Extinction. At the merge he won the re-entry duel, after which he largely became a social pariah within his tribe. Despite eventually becoming a target for being a major threat to win, he escaped elimination several times through four Immunity Challenge wins and the use of several Hidden Immunity Idols, allowing him to make it to the final four. On Day 38, however, he lost the fire-making tiebreaker challenge to his former ally Chris Underwood, causing him to fall short of the Final Tribal Council.
