Fist: just because it is not in Bible does not make it an invalid practice. The canonical form of the (Christian) Bible wasn't 'officially' established until some time into the history of Christianity (Council of Rome), and to a certain extent it was formalizing what was already accepted practice since the beginning of the faith (as mentioned in the Didache). And if you want to argue sola scriptura, good luck.
Second: we have records for Sunday worship from First Apology of Justin Martyr (100-165 AD), amongst others. A few centuries before Constantine.

People rationalize away the contortions of the last 2000+ years to fit their cognitive biases and that truth makes them deeply uncomfortable. Sola scriptura isn't some radical idea—it's quite dumb: "what did God say in the Bible? Okay, do that." Everything man has added beyond that is, by definition, unbiblical [1].
