Being a cover, an instrumental cover of an a capella song would have instruments playing and not just be silence...

Right, it would consist of the instruments mimicking the voice of the original singer

Edit: That makes me wonder, has anyone ever tried to actually imitate human speech with musical instruments? How many would you need?

Not sure about the human speech, but there is a certain mongolian string instrument able to perfectly immitate a horse. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v4xZUr0BEfE (4:41)
