It's not perfect, but there's a very close correlation to the size of the femur with overall body mass in modern animals we use to extrapolate.
See the chart in https://phys.org/news/2020-08-dinosaur.html
There's some debate over how useful this is for dinosaurs, but something that died out 10k years ago with closely related existing species is probably easier.
