I always put my tomato plants in a tomato plant cage. I use plastic zip ties or string to tie the longer branches to the metal cage for support.
It might not be too late to plant new transplants if you buy transplants, depending on your climate. You could just buy a couple new plants and put them in cages in the ground. You could ask your local plant nursery.
One time I went to this old man's house who has been farming for like over 80 years. He took me out to his shed and shows me this massive tomato plant in a bucket. He tells me that it's from the last year and that he kept it alive in his shed all winter as a joke. I helped him replant it in the ground. I'm not sure if it grew more tomatoes after that. The point is that tomato plants are pretty resilient.
