You must be able to target a spell to cast Render Silent.

The affected player can still activate abilities, including abilities of cards in their hand (such as bloodrush abilities), and the player can still play lands.

If the spell is an illegal target when Render Silent tries to resolve (because it’s been countered by another spell, for example), Render Silent won’t resolve and none of its effects will happen.
