Not according to this:
(b) In each game of the regular and postseason, a Club may choose to elevate a maximum of two players from its Practice Squad to its Active/Inactive List without the player first terminating his Practice Squad Player Contract and executing an NFL Player Contract.
(d) Any elevation of a player from a Club's Practice Squad to its Active/Inactive List must occur no earlier in the week than the final day for such player personnel transactions prior to the game for which the player is being elevated, but not later than the applicable player personnel transaction deadline for that day. Any player who is elevated to a Club's Active/Inactive List must be listed on the Club's game-day Active List or Inactive List, as applicable.
(e) Any player who is elevated to a Club's Active/Inactive List for a regular season or postseason game pursuant to this Section 5 shall automatically revert to the Club's Practice Squad at 4:00 p.m., New York time, on the first business day following such game without being subject to waivers.

Good find brother! I heard a podcast say they'd be exposed every time to waivers, the 1 or 2 would be brought up weekly. That seemed incredibly complicated to me.
