I went back and checked all the plays on ESPN.com and McCluster didn't return any kickoffs in preseason. He only returned 2 punts---one against the Saints for 55 yds (excellent) and one against the 49ers for -4 yds (poor). He didn't get many touches in preseason, I believe because the Chiefs already know what they have with him. Wylie and Davis did very well, but haven't done it in a real game yet, so it makes sense that Dex would still be listed first on the depth chart at this point.
My guess is that McCluster will be used fairly often in the offense, while Wylie and Davis will seldom see the field except for special teams. They will get to return plenty of kicks/punts regardless of where they are listed on the depth chart and I wouldn't be at all surprised if the order changes after the first couple of games.
