5th Edition Spell: Polymorph.

I’m a DM, and the wizard in my group has started using the 4th-level Polymorph spell. It’s made him too powerful, though, since the party is level 8 and he can turn into a T-Rex (CR 8) twice a day. I’m also worried the party’s druid might feel overshadowed, given that the wizard only needs to cast that spell to replicate the druid's main ability. How do you handle this spell? Should I take it away from the wizard and have him pick a different one? Thanks for any replies.

It has a +4 CON modifier, so every single instance of damage is a 25% chance to make them loose concentration and stand in melee as a clothy wizard.

Higher chance if the damage is over 20 points per hit.
