That being said, asking the guy if he’s engaged certainly isn’t unreasonable or invasive, relative to the stature of his position

No. it’s not. Of course there are boundaries, but this is not even close.

There is some line the public shouldn’t cross, just being an NFL QB doesn’t give the world carte blanche to invade your life.

I still love Rodgers, but I think he is wrong or at least incredibly naive about this The salary he gets makes this part of the bargain. A super bowl and league mvp is not just a player–he is also a celebrity, and obviously a public figure. People WILL take an interest in this.
Quite frankly, any claim he has about privacy is further waived with some of those ridiculous commercials.
He should simply confirm the engagement and move on. This makes him look petty and naive.
