Will Rick Devens still be competing in Big Brother 28 on September 6?

Why: Multiple independent sources in the evidence pool report that Rick Devens survived the Week 8 live eviction and remained in the Big Brother 28 house into Week 9. Deadline (Sept. 3) and NorthJersey (Sept. 3/4) report Devens won the BB Blockbuster safety on the Sept. 3 live episode and was not evicted; Paramount+ (Sept. 4) likewise confirms LaTrice Verrett was evicted on Sept. 3 and that Devens won the BB Block Buster and was saved. LOHUD’s Sept. 6 article lists the eight remaining houseguests heading into Week 9 and explicitly includes Rick Devens, and LOHUD’s schedule notes that Sunday (Sept. 6) features HOH/nomination ceremonies while live evictions occur on Thursdays. No source in the provided evidence reports his eviction, expulsion, voluntary exit, or other permanent removal prior to or on Sept. 6, 2026. Therefore, as of 11:59:59 PM ET on 2026-09-06, Rick Devens was an active houseguest.
