On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

However, he is not mentioned as a prisoner in Col 4:12, so that "fellow prisoner" here may mean merely one who was a faithful companion to Paul in his imprisonment, and by his society put himself in the position of a prisoner.

Our dear fellow-servant (said St. Paul), and for you a faithful minister of Christ ( Col. i. 12, 13 ), A servant of Christ, always labouring for you in prayers.
