Yes, it does.

Weed has non-acute negative effects on cognition for 7 hours to 3 weeks after use, dropping off most significantly after 72 hours of abstinence.

You're really making that study do a lot of work it wasn't intended to. Their main conclusion is that the effect size on cognitive function was very small, and basically disappears after 72 hours.
